Ingredients
Scale
- Strawberry Syrup
- 1 ½ cups (249 g) strawberries, washed, hulled, diced small
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Strawberry Muffin Batter
- 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
- 1 ¼ cups (250 g) granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ cup (1 stick / 113 g) unsalted butter, melted, cooled slightly
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ½ cup (122.5 g) whole milk
- 1 ½ cups (249 g) strawberries, washed, hulled, diced small
- Crumble Topping
- ½ cup (62.5 g) all-purpose flour
- ⅓ cup (67 g) granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons light brown sugar, packed
- ¼ teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 pinch kosher salt
- ¼ cup (½ stick / 57 g) unsalted butter, melted, cooled slightly
Instructions
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook until the sugar dissolves and strawberries begin to break down, about 7 to 8 minutes. Mash the strawberries slightly.
- Simmer until the syrup thickens slightly. Set aside to cool.
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk.
- Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix. Gently fold in the diced strawberries.
- In a small bowl, mix the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, lemon zest, salt, and melted butter for the crumble topping.
- Fill each muffin cup almost full with batter. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the strawberry syrup over each muffin. Sprinkle about 1 ½ tablespoons of the crumble topping over each muffin.
- Bake for 10 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 375°F and bake for another 19 to 21 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 to 10 minutes, then remove them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Ensure strawberries are fresh for the best flavor.
- Do not overmix the batter to keep muffins light and fluffy.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature.
